Veteran actor Anupam Kher is all set to attend Narendra Modi's swearing in ceremony at the Rashtrapati Bhawan today evening.

Kher described Modi's oath taking day as historic and full of hope while hailing his election as Prime Minister as a victory for India and not just the BJP. He also praised the invitation extended to all SAARC nations' leaders to the oath taking ceremony, calling it a farsighted move.

Meanwhile, another veteran Bollywood personality, Javed Akhtar, said that the whole nation is awaiting the announcement of Modi's cabinet. He also said that while it was a graceful move, there wasn't any need to look for a deeper meaning in Pakistan Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif's visit to India for Modi's anointment as the Prime Minister.
